00:00 "I don't know, we wasn't sure if you knew Taylor Swift."
00:02 "I know."
00:02 Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's rumored romance is sweeping the nation,
00:08 and the nation's capital.
00:09 During a press briefing on October 5th with White House Press Secretary Kareem Jean-Pierre
00:15 and National Security Council spokesman John Kirby,
00:19 reporters jokingly questioned them about the topic dividing the country,
00:24 if the songstress and the NFL player are the real deal.
00:28 "All right, apparently she's dating a football player."
00:30 "Yes."
00:38 "The relationship?
00:46 I, you know, in the vernacular of the National Security Council,
00:52 I can neither confirm nor deny those reports.
00:56 I will happily take the question back to our analysts."
00:58 The internet is still reeling over Taylor's back-to-back appearances at Travis's last
01:03 two games with the Kansas City Chiefs, where she's been seen cheering him on with everyone
01:08 from his mom Donna Kelsey to her own A-list squad, including pals Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds,
01:15 Sophie Turner, and more.
01:16 A few days after the first game, Travis spoke about Taylor on his and Jason's podcast, New Heights.
01:23 "Shout out to Taylor for pulling up. That was pretty ballsy. That was pretty ballsy, yeah.
01:27 I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but
01:32 great things to say about her, you know, the friends and family.
01:35 She looked amazing. Everybody was talking about her in great light.
01:39 And on top of that, you know, the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course.
01:45 We scripted it all, ladies and gentlemen. It was just impressive. It was impressive."
01:50 "To see the slow-motion chest bumps, to see the high-fives with mom, to see how, you know,
01:58 Chiefs' kingdom was all excited that she was there, that s--- was absolutely hysterical.
02:02 And it was definitely a game I'll remember, that's for damn sure."
02:05 The pair have yet to confirm the status of their relationship publicly,
02:09 but Donna joined today on October 6th and opened up about her new connection with the Grammy winner.
02:16 "You know, it's fairly new, so I don't like to talk about it. It's just one of those things where,
02:22 you know, obviously everybody saw me. I was in the boxes with her, and yeah, it's just,
02:28 you know, another thing that's amped up my life."
02:32 "Yeah, what was she like? What was it? I mean, so you got to know her a little bit,
02:36 got to see her a couple games. How was it?"
02:38 "It was okay, yeah."
02:42 "We both met her, and we've always sort of just been delighted by her way."
02:46 "Yeah, yeah."
02:47 "Yeah."
02:48 "Yeah."
02:49 "Did you, did Travis say, 'Mom, if you get on the Today Show and start spilling the beans,
02:54 you get a little warning?'"
02:56 "It's not so much a warning, it's his personal life."
03:00 "Yeah."
03:00 "And, you know, I'll talk about my life, and when the kids were little and I was with them,
03:04 but you know, they're men now."
03:06 "Yeah, they're grown."
03:07 "And they've got their own lives, and there isn't a man alive that's going to talk to their mom
03:11 about their personal life. It's just not going to happen."
